Pentaerythritol distearate is an ester derived from pentaerythritol and stearic acid, commonly used in cosmetic and personal care products. It functions as an emulsifying agent, stabilizer, and thickener, helping to blend water and oil phases in formulations, such as lotions and creams. Its texture-enhancing properties give products a smooth, creamy consistency. Pentaerythritol distearate is also valued for its ability to improve the spreadability of skincare products on the skin, making it a popular ingredient in moisturizers, sunscreens, and hair care products. Additionally, it contributes to the overall stability and shelf life of cosmetic formulations.
